I do not think they have your best interests at heart.

No, they don't.

I think I'm going to see if I can line up an appointment with a career counselor in the near future. I need to figure out if the cons outweigh the pros here--that is, if I end up getting the job. Which I probably won't anyway.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I do not think they have your best interests at heart.
No, they don't.

Many companies don't, in a way that they do up until it interferes with their perceived best interests, but this shit is messing with your ability to prioritise yourself.

Do they not need your position anymore? I mean, if this hiring requirement didn't come up, would your job have changed because they need this new role filled? This is going from clusterfuck of mismanagement to...Jesus, is there enough stupidity to chalk it up to?

Maybe I'm just naive, but... isn't that sort of thing drug company reps should be informing doctors about? Shouldn't it just be a matter of course, to inform doctors and hospitals when a drug is discontinued?

The pharmacy seems to know. 1/3 of the doctors and 1/2 of the nurses seem to know. But when I mention it's been since, like, 2011 since I had any, the rest are surrpised.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

That's terrible, Consuela! So much wrong I can't even verbalize all the wrongness. Ugh.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

So do strippers going to work but that’s another story.

The hell? If I couldn't make enough money strip-dancing to get my own car, I wouldn't keep doing it.

It's a safety issue, from not walking alone to one's car to not having something so identifying that a creeper customer could follow.

Consuela, I'm sorry about work being so cranial-rectal.

Allyson, I'm thinking of you.

Damn, are any of the job duties negotiable?

Grand Central Terminal pictures. #1, #15 & #16 are amazing, but wouldn't want to be breathing air that smoky.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

E-fucking-gad, Consuela!!! I am so angry on your behalf. They have been underhanded and unprofessional throughout this entire process.

And in it's own post, so that my anger wouldn't spill over onto something so good: Happy Birthday Olivia!

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

I was all excited to gt my first response to the 30 or so resumes I've sent out. Alas, it was a job paying $9.00 an hour.
